If you’ve ever felt under the weather and wondered what it was making your nose heavy you’ll feel for 51 year old Steve Easton who had his own personal Homer Simpson moment when he sneezed outrageously and dislodged a rubber sucker that had been up his nose for more than 40 years. Unlike Homer who knew he had a crayon stuck there, Steve knew nothing about his pesky problem.

Suckered

Aged 7 Steve had fired a toy pistol with a rubber dart and it had hit his nose. The rubber tip had disappeared and Steve was afraid it had lodged up there and his parents fearing the worst trotted him off to hospital, but a search by doctors revealed no rubber end.

To Be Sneezed At

Then after a near lifetime of sniffles and sneezes Steve finally found out the cause of his nasal problems. It wasn’t hay fever, but the same piece of rubber he lost all those years ago. Sitting at his Steve said: “ I wonder if there’s anything else up there?”

Not To be Sneezed At
